About the service
From the Care Quality Commission's inspection report published 9 November 2022. Quoted under the Open Government Licence.
Creda House is a care home without nursing providing personal care for people with learning disabilities and or autism. At the time of our inspection four people were receiving care and support. We expect health and social care providers to guarantee people with a learning disability and autistic people respect, equality, dignity, choices and independence and good access to local communities that most people take for granted. 'Right support, right care, right culture' is the guidance CQC follows to make assessments and judgements about services supporting people with a learning disability and autistic people and providers must have regard to it.
What inspectors found
The provider was not always able to demonstrate how they were meeting some of the underpinning principles of Right support, right care, right culture.
Read the rest of CQC's summary
Right Culture: The provider's quality monitoring processes were not always effective at highlighting issues found on inspection. People's medicines were not always managed and stored safely. The environment did not always reflect people's preferences. For example, some parts of the service were quite bare, with no pictures on the walls, lacked personalisation and areas of the service required maintenance and repair. Staff knew people well and were responsive to their needs. People and their relatives were involved in their care. Staff worked with people to achieve their goals.
Right Support: People were supported to have choice and control of their lives and staff supported them in the least restrictive way possible and in their best interests; the policies and systems in the service supported this practice. People were supported to participate in activities and maintain relationships with those who were important to them.
Right Care: People were supported in a person-centred way. People's dignity was promoted and staff demonstrated knowledge around people's individual communication preferences. Relatives provided positive feedback about the care and support provided.
